Griffith Observatory Open House on 20 June

Allyson Bieryla Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian

The AAS Committee for Accessibility Rights and Equity (CARE) is excited to participate in the Griffith Observatory Open House on 20 June from 2:00 to 10:00 pm. Throughout the day, we’ll showcase accessible observing techniques, including tactile images, 3D models, live camera feeds for visitors with mobility impairments, and even a sonification of sunset that lets you "hear" the changing sky. If you are local or staying after the 248th AAS meeting, please join us for this fun and inclusive event!
